Chapter 1794: The Paralysed City
The nuclear power plant was bombed, the port and airport were bombed, several transportation arteries were bombed, and Aguino was going crazy. It's night, and I don't see any big problems yet, and when the morning dawns, all kinds of problems will follow. Especially if the temperature continues tomorrow and there is no electricity, the consequences will be very terrible. Think about it, air conditioners and fans don't work, computers don't work, subways don't work, trams don't work, elevators don't work, and gas dispensers at gas stations don't work. Transportation, hospitals, companies, enterprises, factories, government departments, etc., will be paralyzed.
"Hello?"
"Hey, hey, hey......"
Aguino watched the cabinet members shouting around with their phones like headless flies, and his face turned blue with anger, and he slapped his desk hard and yelled.
"Enough!"
"Hey, hey, hey...... Belch! β
Like a flock of quacking ducks, their necks were suddenly twisted, and the noisy sound suddenly fell silent. One by one, they held up the phone, opened their mouths, and looked at Aguino.
Aguino slammed his fingers on the table: "The current shape is already very serious, even if you burrow your head into the phone and shout out your throat, it's useless." Or think of a way, how to restore the power of the city, restore the production order of the city. β
"Bang!"
The door to the conference room was slammed open, and the mayor of Manila burst in breathlessly, and everyone looked at it in unison.
The mayor of Manila took a breath, didn't pay much attention to it, and said in a somewhat translated voice: "Your Excellency, President, hurry!" The nuclear material will soon spread, and the emergency plan will be activated immediately to evacuate the population within 200 kilometers. β
The people present, including Aguino, were dumbfounded, it was not that they did not know what the consequences of the leakage of nuclear materials would be, but they were confused by this bunch of things and did not expect it.
Aguino's face kept changing, blue and white for a while, and finally looked around: "Let's talk about it, what should I do?" Almost two million people, withdrawn there? β
The mayor of Manila was in a hurry: "Evacuate to Baguio and inform Baguio to prepare for it." β
Everyone looked at the mayor of Manila again, and the defense minister said: "The Santos rebels have officially carried out a coup d'Γ©tat, and they have launched military operations against Baguio at the time of the terrorist attacks on nuclear power plants, ports, and airports." β
"Ahh The mayor of Manila opened his mouth wide, he didn't expect things to turn out like this. At the time of the terrorist attack on Manila, Santos took a military action, how could it be such a coincidence.
The Minister of Intelligence sneered: "Do you think it's a coincidence? β
The mayor of Manila nodded reflexively, and the Minister of Intelligence said coldly: "This is all planned by Santos, and he, the executioner, will be nailed to the frame of shame by the Filipino people forever." β
Aguino said: "Let's not talk about this for now, let's quickly come up with a solution, how to solve this crisis perfectly." Otherwise, it's not just Santos nailed to the frame of shame, we can't run either. β
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and the vice president, who had not spoken, said: "Call the meteorological department immediately and ask them where the wind is going now and tomorrow!" β
Aguino's eyes lit up, he looked at the chief of staff of the presidential management and said, "Go and ask immediately!" β
The chief of staff nodded, walked out quickly, and came back in a short time, with an excited smile on his face. When the people looked at it, they knew there was good news.
"It's been a southeast wind for the past two days!"
The Minister of Defense looked at the map on the wall of the conference room with a relaxed expression on his face: "If it were a southeast wind, a nuclear leak would not affect any city." β
Even without looking at the map, everyone here knows that there are no cities in the northwest of Manila. There are only mountains, and then there is the sea.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Aguino slapped his face and breathed a sigh of relief: "Although the nuclear leakage crisis has been lifted temporarily, we must not be careless, and immediately organize experts to inspect and control the spread of nuclear radiation, and test and treat people within 50 kilometers." β
"Yes!"
The Minister of Environment and Natural Resources said yes and walked away quickly.
Aguino continued: "Now let's talk about how to restore the power to the best of our ability!" β
"Dasmarinias, it's only 20 kilometers from Manila, but it's powered by two other large thermal power plants, and we can take the line over," the energy minister said. Although this will strain the power supply in several cities of Dasmarinhas, Manila can restore normal production order. β
Aguino pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "How long will it take?" β
The energy minister said: "It will take a week at the earliest. β
Aguino said with a gloomy face: "No, I can only give you two days, if the power supply in Manila cannot be restored within two days, you can resign yourself." β
The Minister of Energy's face darkened, but at this time he could only promise stubbornly: "Yes!" β
Aguino waved his hand: "You go and arrange it immediately!" β
"Jingle ......"
As soon as Aguino's words fell, the phone on the No. 1 special line in the conference room suddenly rang.
Aguino grabbed the phone and heard the voice of the head of the National Police, Magtibe.
"Your Excellency the President, there has been a large-scale stampede in major shopping malls and entertainment venues in Manila, and the number of losses and casualties is unknown!"
"What?" Aguino had just calmed down, and his heart was once again in his throat, "Immediately send police to maintain order and notify the hospital to do everything possible to rescue the wounded." β
"I've sent the police and notified the hospitals, but only two hospitals have backup power systems, and there aren't many diesel stocks to keep the power supply going," Magtibe said. β
Aguino was so angry that he almost scolded his mother: "I will inform the military and ask them to send the strategic reserve oil over, no matter what the cost, we must do our best to rescue the wounded." β
"Yes!" Magtebe hung up the phone, then put on his clothes and was about to head out. As soon as I got to the door, the phone on my desk rang.
Magtebe walked back again, picked up the phone and said, "I'm Magtebe!" β
"Director!" A panicked voice came from the earpiece, "There was a large-scale riot in Manila, the rioters were armed with steel pipes, machetes and even guns, robbing and setting fire everywhere, the situation was no longer under control, ask for police support!" β
Magtebe's head buzzed, his eyes were pitch black, his body shook, and he hissed and roared: "Waste, a group of waste, arrest immediately, and kill immediately if you resist." After saying that, he slammed the phone and called Aguino again.
When Aguino saw that it was another call from Magtebe, he had a very bad premonition, he really didn't want to answer the call, but he couldn't answer it.
"What was born again?"
Magtebe gasped for breath and explained the matter. When Aguino heard the news of the riots, he was no better than Magtebe. However, as president, he cannot express himself.
"Got it, I'll notify the military to send troops immediately!"
Magetibe breathed a sigh of relief, the matter has now been completely out of control, and with the existing police force, without the help of the military, it will be impossible to control the situation at all.
Aguino put down the phone and saw that the mayor of Manila was still standing there, so he was angry and shouted: "Now it's a mess outside, why don't you go back quickly, what are you still standing here?" β
"Huh? Yes! The mayor of Manila didn't care about anything, turned around and ran out.
In less than an hour, the coup d'Γ©tat in Manila and the terrorist attack were reported by intelligence agencies around the world. All countries, especially Western countries, are fully operational in all sectors, and some strategically important facilities in the country are strictly guarded.
Although more than 10 years have passed since 911 and Comrade La1den has been executed, the terrorist attack is unforgettable, as if he was born yesterday. The United States, in particular, is even more careless.
At the White House, President convened an emergency meeting, and his face, which was already black, was bright black at this time.
"I think you all know about the coup d'Γ©tat in the Philippines and the large-scale terrorist attack!"
The cabinet members nodded, and the glanced at them, "Tell me, what should we do?" β
"The Philippines is an important fulcrum for us to contain China in the Asia-Pacific region, and we have paid so much price to win over the Philippines, and if the Aguino regime falls, the situation will not be under our control," said National Security Adviser James. β
The nodded and looked at Defense Minister Ewell: "What is your opinion?" β
Ewell pondered, "Advisor James is right, the Aguino regime must not be allowed to fall. Otherwise, the efforts we have put in for so many years are likely to fail. β
There was a burst of discussion among the people that China's military and economic strength had been growing rapidly in recent years, which made them feel afraid. Therefore, he put forward the strategy of returning to the Asia-Pacific region and while continuing to strengthen the military alliance between the United States and Japan and the United States and the Republic of Korea, he also actively strengthened military penetration into Southeast Asia and expanded the military alliance in order to achieve the encirclement of China.
Although Southeast Asian countries are dissatisfied with the US military presence in the region, they have increased their bargaining chips with China on a series of issues such as the South China Sea dispute in order to use the US military strength to reap benefits. The Philippines, as well as Malaysia, Indonesia, and other countries, have turned a blind eye to U.S. military expansion. It can be said that the United States has joined forces with Southeast Asian countries, and its leading position in the Asia-Pacific region has been strengthened. The South China Sea dispute has become an important focus and grasp of the United States' containment of the western Pacific and the Indian Ocean, as well as the containment of China.
And in this process, because of Japan's relations, South Korea's attitude has been ambiguous, and after Vietnam and other countries felt that they could not get benefits and withdrew, only the fool of the Philippines was left to act as an arsonist.
As long as there is a slight easing of the South China Sea, the United States will continue to encourage the Philippines to set fire to it. This is because only when the South China Sea dispute escalates can the United States intervene, and there is a legitimate reason for the United States military force to enter the South China Sea. The United States is once again using this to exaggerate China's coercion and coerce China's neighboring countries to profit from foreign affairs.
But now if the Aquino regime falls, the United States will regain its original position in the Asia-Pacific region. Because except for the Philippines, no one is a fool, and if they want to win over those countries, the price they will pay will be a hundred times and a thousand times, and even the rich Yankees will not be able to bear it.
After a while, the knocked on the table, and waited until everyone was still before saying, "In that case, what is the reason for us to send troops?" βββ635+151729ββ>
